City Council Minutes July 16, 1990 Page 8 e Councilmember Kropuenske indicated that he disagrees with Councilmember Holmgren because of the fact that the sign ordinance has had a lot of work put into it and that it is a relatively new adopted ordinance. THE MOTION FAILED 2-3. Councilmembers Kropuenske, Schuldt, and Mayor Tralle voted against the motion. 6.3. Administrative Subdivision by David Gow/Public Hearin~ The Building and Zoning Administrator stated that Mr. Gow owns a 40 acre parcel and that he is requesting to subdivide five or ten acres from this parcel to accommodate the existing house. Discussion was held regarding access to the newly created parcel. The Building and Zoning Administrator explained that his memo listed three options for the Council to consider regarding the access. He explained that the options were as follows: 1. Allow the newly created parcel to be accessed by the private easement as shown. 2. Allow the lot split as proposed with both lots being accessed off of 205th Avenue. This would possibly include the upgrading of 205th Avenue to an urban section road. Mr. Rohlf indicated that this option is probably cost prohibitive for the applicant. e 3. Allow the lot split as shown with 205th Avenue remaining unimproved. Mayor Tralle opened the public hearing. Mr. Paul Juenemann of 19210 Waco Street indicated that the plat shows the sixty foot easement as being totally on his property. Marilyn VanPatten Chuba indicated that she owns the lot next to Mr. Gow. She stated that the road should turn and be extended north. She stated she would like to sell part of her property, but there is no access to it. Katherine Juenemann questioned who actually owns the road. She stated that it is listed as their property on their property taxes and that they are paying taxes on their road. She further questioned why they are paying the taxes if 205th is a City road. Councilmember Kropuenske stated that because the Council does not know where the actual easement is, he would suggest that staff research the administrative subdivision request further and bring it back to Council at a later date. e COUNCILMEMBER KROPUENSKE MOVED TO CONTINUE THE PUBLIC HEARING UNTIL AUGUST 20 AND THAT THE PETITIONER PROVIDE AN ADEQUATE SITE PLAN SHOWING WHERE THE EASEMENTS LAY. COUNCILMEMBER DOBEL SECONDED THE MOTION.
